Joe Biden plans to give tax collectors an extra $80bn to seek as much as $700bn in new revenue from high earners and large corporations, as part of the American Families Plan set to be unveiled this week.

Separately, the White House announced overnight that Biden will issue an executive order requiring federal contractors to pay a $15 minimum wage to workers on federal contracts.

Enhanced tax enforcement by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), coupled with new disclosure rules, could raise $700bn over the next decade from wealthy people and privately-owned businesses, according to unidentified administration officials speaking to the New York Times.

The additional funding represents an increase of two-thirds over the agencys entire funding levels for the past decade.

This is good; I'm just shitposting with the title to poke at what we call law enforcement and what we don't.
